+Version 5.0.0 of zsh is the new stable release.  There are many changes
+since the last stable release series, 4.2, of which the most important
+is handling of multibyte characters.  The file NEWS in the distribution
+gives more information.  The file README details some incompatibilities
+with previous versions, mostly minor.
+
+Users of the development release series will not see major changes since
+the previous release, 4.3.17.
